Curing Hams.


The celebrated .'Ashland hams cured by Mrs.
Henry Clay. and which were sent annually to
Boston and bought at the highest prices by the
wealthy Wings of that city forty years ago. were
made by allowing for every ten hams Of moder-
ate size three and half pounds of fine salt, one
pound of saltpeter and two pounds of brown
sugar. mixed thoroughly together and rubbed
into the ham both sides. They were then
packed in tight box and placed in a cool ont
house for threee weeks. when the hams were
taken out and put in picking tub or hogshead
and covered with brine strong enough to swim
an egg After remaining in the pickle for about
three weeks they were thoroughly rubbed with
fresh salt and hung MP to dry. They next
transferred to the smoke house, where they were
hung up and smoked with green hickory or wal
nut wood until they acquired the color OF mahog-
any. Each ham was then sewed up in canvas
and tho coverings whtewashed and hung up to
dry. after which they whitewashed again
and packed away in hogsheads with hickory
ashes until wanted sent TO Boston.

And wander long in memories sepulcher.
